Carl Bird
Editor, ASIA
Migrated from the East Coast USA to South-East Asia after graduating from East Stroudsburg University. Following in the footsteps of my grandfather, I began buying and trading stocks in my teens and take every chance I get to stack up on silver. Cryptocurrencies piqued my interest in early 2016 and I began researching and writing about blockchain technology and emerging financial technology soon after.
You can most often find me huddled over a bowl of phở and plotting Bitcoin’s next move or in your jungle taking your blue bluff.
